Rebbe Baruch Yehoshua Yerachmiel Rabinowitz, (1915-1998) was born in Poland to his father Rebbe Natan David of Biala. From his youth, he was famous for his phenomenal genius and amazing erudite knowledge. The rebbe, author of Minchat Elazar, Rebbe Chaim Elazar Shapira Av Beit Din of Mukacheve chose him as a husband for his only daughter, Chaya Frumet. Their royal wedding was documented in the newspapers of that time as the largest Jewish wedding in all Hungarian countries. The borders were opened and special train lines transported Jews from all over Hungary to Mukacheve, (see Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Volume 3, pp. 909-910).
After the death of his great father-in-law, Rabbi Rabinowitz succeeded him as Av Beit Din of Mukacheve and although he was only 22 years old, he led this large congregation for three years until the eruption of World War II. During the war, he suffered greatly following his expulsion from Mukacheve by the government (being a Polish citizen) and after much wandering and many travails (he was active in rescue operations in Budapest, from there he escaped to Eretz Israel via Turkey and Lebanon) survived the Holocaust and in 1944 arrived in Jerusalem with his entire family. (He managed to bring with him part of his large library of books and ancient manuscripts from the home of the Minchat Elazar and the Darkei Teshuva of Mukacheve). On their arrival in Jerusalem, his wife, Rebbetzin Chaya Frumet became ill. She died within the year, leaving behind five young orphans. [Two of his sons from his first wife are the famous Mukacheve and Dynów Rebbes at present living in the USA].
